The 20x loupe arrived yesterday. I have examined all four of my W517's. The new one has some distinct differences from the other cards. The differences are illustrated in the picture below.
None of the other cards have dots making up hexagonal shapes or dots in the tan border of the card. The other cards do not have any mixed colors that Gil was talking about above. The other three cards are identical in dot pattern, except for the color of the dots as you would expect.
As illustrated below, my new card has tan colored dots in the border of the card. In the white areas of the card, the dots make up hexagonal shapes. The dots are mostly brown in the brown areas, with a few yellow and white dots mixed in. Do any of you have graded cards with these characteristics?
I have my opinions. What are yours?
